You Guys are gonna like this one.

First of all, just put your papers in the glove box.

LEOs are trained and expect to be in control of any situation they're in. If they even suspect you're copping an attitude (no pun intended), they're either going to let you go or be more harsh on you then they need to be. You can choose to be a (lawful) **** to the cops, but unless your dad is one or you're a lawyer, you'll have to accept whatever comes back to you due to it.

If you do ANYTHING even REMOTELY illegal in your car and you say your papers are in the trunk, and if the cop asks you to pop the trunk and allow them to search for the papers, they may possibly decide you've given them the right to search your entire car for whatever. This hopefully wouldn't bother you, but there are worse idiots out there that write off their rights for dumber situations and pay the price when their weed stash wasn't so stashed. Or open alcohol.

But hey, it's your choice to be odd. I have no idea what actually happened to cause him to pull you over (you went over a double yellow line?). But if you did it, then you did it, even if for a brief second.

Also, just don't do burnouts. >.< Let alone in a parking lot that is not yours.

Would you be able to do a DIY or some kind of How To on this? Id be pretty impressed if you could add a line detail in there on where my pressue guage should go.

You mean like a How To Properly Act When Pulled Over By Police?

Your best bet is to ask a lawyer or other LEO. And there are such articles and Youtube clips of such.

My 20-second-prep comment would be:
Be considerate (turn off your car, hands on the wheel, don't fidget about or get your papers out before asked), know your rights, be at least functionally aware of local road laws, don't lie, don't do anything strange that you don't warn the cop about (grab for things in your car, get out), and shut up. (No, really, shut up unless pointedly asked questions; and even then answer only the questions asked.)

Because doing donuts in an empty parking lot doesn't leave any preventable tire marks? How would you feel if someone were to be doing donuts on your driveway? It's no different from a business' standpoint.

You are incredible. Cool story, bro.

Minsu

Tell me about it, always forget college is ran more like a business then actual business.

What happened is a cop saw a young guy with a fast car (that he probably couldn't afford) and didn't like it. Had it happen to me and my buddies numerous times 40 years ago too. Ain't nothin' new!

Welcome to the club!

Bottom line the cop was making quota.
Stay out Of Staten Island, the NYPD out here have nothing better to do but give out B.S. tickets. its always a game. Be smart keep your stuff in the glove.
It was fun reading all the B.S. just my 2 cents.
LoL

Minsu

Yeah, great thread lol. I feel compelled to contribute:

I keep my Jeep Rubicon's insurance papers under the carpet in the trunk. My Rubicon's been broken into half a dozen times. The glove box gets rooted through every time. They've NEVER stolen my insurance papers (with my name, address etc) because...(wait for it)...they were hidden in the trunk.

Yes, there is the inconvenience of retrieving the papers from the trunk if I'm pulled over, but the cops always say they understand why I hide them.

...and I understand why they stand back with their hands on their guns when I start rooting around in the trunk

Minsu

Thank you Tick64, Thank You
